Hello,
I had to replace my faulty hard drive, and so I had to re-install my
programs. Now when I make something in Moray (3.3 with patch), the rendering
in Povray has no background, just a gray and white checkerboard pattern
instead of the background created in Moray. How can I fix this?
Thank you,
Steve Shelby

  What is "the background created in Moray"?

  When you use +ua, then the background uses that checkered background.

Warp,
The background created in Moray is set in Scene/Settings/Background. What is
+ua?

  Use alpha channel.

I think it's in Moray.ini file, in Moray's main directory.
You have to search for the item: "Output_Alpha=On" and turn it to
"Output_Alpha=Off".
Save the file and start Moray.
Render again.

Hope this helps
